SLASH describes the creation of "Driving Rain" "This is a riff I specifically remember playing with the guys for the first time at a venue in New Hampshire on the World on Firetour," explains SLASH. "It's a cool guitar part we ran through, and from that point forward the rest of the song started to come together in my mind while on the road. We put it all together this year and Myles came up with a great melody for it." MYLES KENNEDY adds, "The riff is very reminiscent of vintage Aerosmith. It's got a certain funk to it that's compelling. Lyrically, it's a story about somebody who works on the road--it could be a musician, and it could be a traveling salesman. What makes it interesting is this guy has an addict girlfriend or spouse who continues to relapse, and she ends up getting him to come home. She's miserable and falls back into bad old habits, and that compels him to head back to her to save the day."

LIVING THE DREAM, is SLASH's fourth solo album, and third with SLASH and his bandmates MYLES KENNEDY (Vocals), BRENT FITZ (Drums), TODD KERNS (Bass & Vocals) and FRANK SIDORIS (Guitar & Vocals).

For LIVING THE DREAM, SLASH and his band re-teamed with producer Michael "Elvis" Baskette (Alter Bridge, Iggy Pop, Incubus) on the powerful 12 song collection. The band's previous albums World On Fire and Apocalyptic Love, debuted in the Top Ten on 12 charts globally, spawned three #1 hit singles at U.S. Rock Radio and earned worldwide praise garnering SLASH some of the best critical acclaim of his career. World On Fire was tagged in the USA by Guitar World as "another bold and unapologetically riffy statement" and "a varied, immersive and incredibly hard rocking effort" (December 2014). Rolling Stone described Apocalyptic Love --the band's debut album -- as "filled with head bangers and plenty of fancy fretwork" and Revolver declared it "a collection of lean, high-octane rock-and-roll tunes built to be blasted out of open-top sports cars, or more suitably, open-air stadiums" (May 2012).
The group's North American headlining tour begins 13th September 2018 in Los Angeles visiting 20 major cities including New York, Denver, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, DC (Silver Spring, MD), Chicago (New Buffalo, MI), Dallas (Thackerville, OK), Austin, Houston, and more before ending 14th October in Sacramento (all dates below).
